CLEVELAND (RWN) - Fundamentalist members of the Cleveland Public School Board have voted to no longer teach the Holocaust in high school history classes.
The board voted 7-2 last night to strike the actions of the Germans against Jews, Gypsies and scores of other groups from curriculum.
"Look at how the Zionists betrayed us," said Makar Rind, a member of the board. "We do not need to ennoble them by talking about what they've gone through. They are our enemies."
This is the second time that the Cleveland Public School Board has taken a controversial stance on history. Three years ago, the board ruled that the 9/11 attacks on New York City and Washington, D.C., should be taught as great moments in the nation's history.
